The building stands on the eastern edge of downtown Dallas, featuring twelve floors, a curtain wall exterior, and an attached seven-story parking facility.

Constructed in 1958 and opened in June 1960, this structure initially served as the headquarters for Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas with 450 employees.

The structure exemplifies mid-century commercial architecture with its bronze, silver, and gray glass exterior, reflecting the design preferences of American corporate buildings.

Four elevators service the 156,344 square feet of office space, providing efficient vertical transportation throughout the thirteen-floor structure.

The building once displayed a 113-foot electronic message board on its roof that cycled through ten different messages every 93 seconds until 1973.
